Other plasma protein fractions are purified preparations containing a variety of plasma proteins excluding immunoglobulins. They are typically used as plasma expanders in the treatment or prevention of shock due to blood loss, burns, or hypoalbuminemia, especially when plasma or albumin is not available. Their use today is limited due to improved alternatives such as albumin solutions, crystalloids, and colloids. Not currently a first-line therapy and rarely used in modern clinical practice.
Estimated typical pharmacokinetic parameters for intravenous administration in adult humans, as specific published PK studies for this ATC-defined group are lacking.
